ABSOLUTELY PURE
Pittston.
Once more tbe Richard of Pittston's
council may rest his head in peace
without fear of his coveted crown being
wrested from him by his treasherons
enemies. During the past two months
tbe fancier of monkeys, truncation and
sacred dream fowls as an advertise
ment bas been in an uneasy frame of
mind. Again and again he was told
that a Richmond, ' While essaying the
role of a friend and adviser, was cun
ningly engaged at work plotting to
overthrow him and thereby have dear
sailing toward tbe goal of his
ambition president of council. Be
lieving that the stories were
fala and only med to poison him
against bis friends in the hops of win
ning him over. The wily Richard, it
is snid, has now discovered that bis in
formers were not deceiving him, but in
i be hope of saving him from an igno
minious fate, imparted to bim the
secret. To preside over the council wns
tbe ambition of the wily Riohmond.
Once there, he could impart to his sub
jects what little be knows about law,
and thereby win for himself that whieh
lie has been denied through the regu
lar course of events. But the course
of events, like the weather vane,
took another turn Friday evening and
for the first time since tbe memorable
reform council organized, that wing
presided over at home and abtoad by
tbe acute Richmond, found in Richard
they bad a foe in an worthy of their
steel. Tbe scheme to decapitate the
unwary Richard proved futile for in
unmistakable language he bid tbem do
their worst. Tbe Sunday Leader cur
respondent in speaking of it says:
"Tbe scheme to down the president
was as arkward and brutal in conoep
tiou as it is weak and indefensible
in practice; in faot, it is ia keep
ing with everything tbe Re
formers had attempted to do up to this
time, snd proposes to accomplish by
indirection what they bad aot tbe man
hood te do in tbe open. In other words, J
tbey huilded an ordinanoe like tbe
shoemaker's gnn one that shoots
around tbe corner; and tbis is tbe way
t hey proceeded to execute the president.
It was thought desirable to draft a new
net of ordinances that would meet the
requirements of modern times and re
cent decisions of tbe courts upon bor
ough Jaws. A committee was appointed
for tbe purpose and the new ordinances
provided that: Upon tneir adoption,
the council, president and the chair
men of all committee shall retire from
tbeir offices and the same shall be de
clared vacant. Clumsy, yon say. Well,
of course its clumsy."
The school boord met again Friday
evening and the alleged charges against
Professor Shiel were taken up by the
board. After much disenssion con
cerning the inability of M, N. Don
nelly to prove his charges, Mr. Br; den
made a motion, which was duly sec
onded and carried, that the committee
be instructed to notify Mr. Donnelly
and the citizens whom he represents to
present sworn affidavits of tbe charges
ag.xinst the supervising principal be
fore the committee at its next meeting,
and upon failure to do so, that the
matter be dropped by tbe committee.
Professor Shiel, who was present during
tbe meeting took his accusers to task.
Addressing the chairman be said: "I
do not want this investigation drop
ped. I want it to go on. I want this
committee to compel this fellow Don
nelly to furnisn the names of the citi
zens whom be represents. It was an
outrage to allow him to come before
the board. Any scoundrel, it seems,
can come before tbis board
with charges against me. It
does not matter where he comes
from Washington, Troy, or other
places where there are tenderloin dis
tricts. No man of decency or Chris
tianity would bring sueh charges
against me. Bis action was an insult
tome, to the members of this board,
and to the people of this borough. 1
have been in ithis town nine years and
no one bas ever before found fault with
my action?. What right has this man
Donnslly to complain of my conduct?
What interest, I would like to know,
has be got in the public schools? He
lias no one belonging to ihim going
to the publlo schools. He bas said
upon tbe streets that he would
drive me out of town. Every
one of his charges are false. He dors
not tell tbe truth, because it was not
born in him to tell tbe truth. I want
the committee to get at the bottom of
this thing, as I want the documents
for future action against tbis fellow
and those associated with bim." It
need hardly be stated here that Mr.
Shiel Intends to make it exceedingly
interesting for bis accusers when tbe
existing trouble is disposed of. That
there was a conspiracy hstebed among
certain individuals for '.the purpose of
injuring bis reputation politically,
socially and otherwise Professor Shiel
is confident and some interesting de
velopments may be looked for soon.
What a bitter pill of disappointment
the several pave expert promoters will
be compelled to awallow in the near
future. It Is said that since the wishes
of the people are divided between as
phalt and brick, the expediency of
paving one side of the street with
orick and the other with asphalt is be
ing seriously considered. However,
there nend be no cause for alarm, for
Tub TninuNE correspondent is assured
that the street, or even a part of it,
will not be paved this year of our Lord.
Just stick a pin here.
Two experienced engineers of the
Soranton Fire department on Saturday
tested the Mug or a steam fire engine,
the repairing of whioh bas been in dis
pute betweea tbe oonncll and J. A.
Touhill. As is well known Mr. Touhill
repaired the engine at cost of nearly
$000. Tbe fire committee of counoil
refused to pay the bill alleging tbe en
gine was not properly repaired. Tbe
engineers found tbe engine to be equal
to any of its elass and pronounced it to
be in excellent condition as far as the
repairing done by Mr. Touhill is con
cerned. The town counoil will meet this even
ing. Pennsylvania company programme

Pedestrians on Main street have been
attracted during tbe past week by a
curiosity in one of tbe large show win
dows of Q. C. Gliek's drug store. It is
called the animated or living beans.
They grow in Mexico on a shrub of tbe
genus "Sebastian." Tbe motion im
parted to tbe beau is made by worm
inside, which eontracts and expands its
body suddenly. When tbe beans are
exposed to tbe cold the movements
euase auogemer. At me end or eight
or nine months tbe worm turns into a
moth. The beans are spherical
triangles, and when three of
them are put together tbey form
a round object which looks much
like a hazlenut, and in this form they
unaouDteQiy grew, Being covered by a
pod or shuek. The peculiarity of the

Tbe borough council held a atar
chamber session on Thursday night
and passed an ordinance granting right
of way over Monroe, Laurel aud Bridge
streets to the Lackawanna Valley
Transit company, tbe corporation now
controlling tbe Maiu street line. Be
sides the councilmen and officials of
the Transit company there were very
few at the session. All except one of
tbe councilmen voted for it. Mr. Jones
seems to be the only member who had
tbe manhood to oppose tbe measure,
and he. rather than witness the humil
iation lof bis fellow-couucilmen,
left the room before a vote
was ordered. The ordinance has not
yet found its way to tbe secretary or
the burgess, so we are spared the pain
of publishing it for tbe present at
least. Tbere is no reason whatever to
justify the granting of this franchise
to tbe Lackawanna Transit company.
Less than two lyears ago this borough
underwent one of tbe most exciting
ordeals in ita history for tbe preserva
tion of the privileges tbe present coun
cil seems anxious to throw away.
Practically tbe Carbondale Traction
company asked no more than the Lack
awanna Transit company asks now.
Surely conditions have not so wonder
fully changed in tbe meantime as
to justify such a sacrifice on
the part of the council. The ma
jority of the present council were
elected simply because the people be
lieved tbem unwilling to throw their
rights away, and it is hard to believe
that they have so far forgotten their
duties that they would violate tbe con
fidence reposed in them. It is not too
lata to make amends for what was done
at Thursday's meeting. Lat tbe off m
sive ordinance be repealed, and if tbe
council faila to do ao then let tbe bur
gess do bis plain duty in tbe premises.
Before going deeper Into this disagree
able subject, we shall await the action
of the burgess. He protested the rights
of the people on one memorable occa
sion, and unless we greatly mistake be
is capable of dtlog ao again. Burgess

In circulation relative to the death of
John Cardiah. CardiBb, it will be re
membered, died in the hospital a week
ago. The autopsy made by the physi
cians revealed that he was the victim
of fonl play and not an accident re
ceived in tbe mines, as bis friends
songbt to maka the hospital authorities
believe.
Tbe detectives learned after diligent
inquiry that the reports were eorreot
and tbat tbere bad b-en a dance in one
of the saloons of tbe village on tbe
night of Aug. 18. It wae the Saturday
after pay day and among tbe crowd
who assembled was Cardisb. Beer
flowed like water and all pnrtook freely
of it. The detvetives learned that
araoug those present was a stranger of
whom everyone so fur interviewed, ap
peared at a loss to know. Tbe stranger
referred to moved about tbe place all the
evening and while appearing as drunk
as bis companions and fully asbilarlous,
was observed to partake sparingly or
tbe liquor.
Cardisb, the mnrdered man, dnring
the evening treated frequently and
displayel considerable money. The
stranger during tbe evening, was ob
served to be interested iu Curdish, and
never lost sight of him When Card
isb left tbe bouse soon after midnight,
several of those present have aince re
membered, the stranger simultaneously
disappeared, but nothing was thought
of it at tbe time. Cardisb did not
reach bis hoarding house until tbe
morning following, whan be was found
to be injured and minus his month's
pay. Shortly after arriving home he
lost consciousness and remained so un
til he died tbe following Friday.
The supposition is. and one which is
strongly shared by the officers, tbat tbe
stranger referred to, seeing or knowing
Cardiah bad money after leaving the
house, headed bim off aud from am
bush struck him with a "bllly"or some
small blunt weapon. That the blow
waa well direoted and a powerful one
is proven by the pieee of tbe sknll
taken from the dead man's head and
which is now in the care of Dr. Me
Fadden, of this place.
